There's a sacred and hidden path inside each one of us, a path of mysteries and amazing manifestations, where nothing is impossible, not even our wildest spiritual creations.
This is the realm of impossibilities, where imagination is carried away by a spiritual insight, which is here referred as the phoenix.
The allegory inside this book takes us to a subconscious realm, that can lead us to the most uplifting and unknown side of ourselves, but also to other realities as well, namely, the ones that are parallel to ours, and also other dimensions and galaxies.
It is with this allegory of the phoenix that we understand the role of the dragons and serpents of our planet, and how they interfere in the Tao of our existence.
As a dance of forces, vibrations of different natures, these symbols and concepts take us to the deepest truth within, of who we are and how far can we go.
This is a book about the adventures of our soul, the journey within that so many Shamans live to explore.
It's also about a path that all spiritualists and gurus have experienced, a path that some have called nirvana, enlightenment or awaking, but few have ever had the ability to fully describe in a way that can be perceived by the common mortal.
The Native Americans have often told us about the spirit of the eagle that keeps guard over the spiritual world.
This eagle, or big bird, is representative of another living force, which is the phoenix, the bird of fire.
This is why many mystics of ancient times believed that only fire could take souls to another world.
The fire purifies the body, but the most potent fire comes from within, as an energy that we burn with our conscious awareness.
This is the fire that Buddhists, Taoists and Hindus persist in awakening from within, commonly using disciplines created specifically for this purpose, such as yoga, chikung and meditation.
This fire represents the power of our own spirituality, which most people are unaware to possess.
As mortals and genetically manipulated slaves of a few alien species, we've lost the physical capability to ignite it. But the phoenix can help us reach it, through the spiritual nature that is within each one of us.
The one who can ride the phoenix, can travel very far, to amazing lands. And these are the ones that often come back, when they choose to, as our prophets and religious leaders.
This book describes their journey to Valhalla, Heaven, Paradise, or more simply, the Laboratory of God.
